American Idol, anyone?
Anoyone watching this year? I got suckered in after flipping through and catching the last night of open call auditions. Now I've faithfully watched every night except last week, when I was out of town.
Predictions on final winner?

I've been hooked since last season. I'm pulling for John Stevens, because he's from near me, but I love Jon Peter Lewis... as for the winner this season, I really don't know.

I think that George Huff is gonna win it. Each week since it started I have had trouble choosing a favorite until I heard him sing Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay. He just gets so into it and has so much fun. However, I still LOVE Latoya, Fantasia, the girl from Hawaii with the flowers in her hair and I just think the cutie pen salesman guy is adorable. LOL

I love American Idol! Tuesday is the best night of the week (yes, I know I'm pathetic, but it's true just the same)
I like George, too. I think Latoya is lovely and has an incredible voice. I also like Fantasia but I don't think she'll win. It was sad to see Camille leave tonight (even tho she clearly was the right choice) amid tears.
Go Clay

We are getting American Idol in Australia. We have Australian idol auditions on at the moment.
I like the girl with the multi coloured hair and that Latoya has an amazing voice.

I am going for George, he has a boyish charm but damn is his voice like some of the great soul / motown singers of old.

I love Diana, I think she has a great voice, but I also think she's got alot of practice to do yet. George and Fantasia both have awesome skills, and vocal range.
As for a clear cut winner, I'd have to say that both Fantasia and George could have it at any time, depending on the songs they choose from here on out.

Yeah I definately think george will make it all the way or at least to the top 3. By the way has anyone noticed how even though Ruben won last year (and my favorite..Clay was soooo close) that nobody ever mentions him on the show? They always say things like, "you almost remind me of clay" or "you're no clay or kelly clarkson" and between us all I think tamyra (sp?) should have won over kelly...damn she can sing!!

My two favorites are George and Latoya. I love the classiness and "lack of negativity" in each of them, not to mention their fabulous voices.

I hadn't watched either of the other two seasons to judge their voices against others, but I have to agree, we hear more about Clay than Ruben. He got his record out faster, got his tour faster, and has been more high profile since coming in second.
I must say, though, I think there were several people who didn't make the top 12 that should have, and at least 2 that made it to the top 12, that shouldn't have.

The only real reason Clay is more popular than Ruben has nothing to do with 1st or 2nd, just simply style of music. The deep soul Ruben sings just isnt as mainstream as the Pop Clay does.
But, Ruben's music is panty-melt music.

As a Clay-fan, I can honestly say that I love his style. I also enjoy listening to Ruben, but I don't enjoy watching him. He looks like he's in pain when he sings.
I still think Scooter-Girl should have made the top 32.
